There are things we can all do to protect ourselves and our whānau from Covid-19, and to minimise the spread in our community:
- Get vaccinated
- Wear a face covering when you’re out
- Keep track of where you have been – including turning on Bluetooth in the COVID-19 tracer app and scanning QR codes. If you don’t have a smart phone, make sure you keep a manual record.
- Wash and dry your hands regularly
- Stay home if you’re sick, get a test and isolate at home until you get the result.
